Location was fine, and staff were courteous. We didn’t try the restaurant in the hotel except for breakfast. Room was comfortable enough. The location of the hotel was fine, too. Right in the middle of Strathpeffer.
Minus
Well, Sunday breakfast was a disaster. Staff on duty in the restaurant really did not know what to do. Nor was anyone guiding them. The tea was terrible, the coffee was worse.
Worryingly, though, I received an odd link in a message: “upgrademyroom.co”. It seemed to offer to upgrade the room for a set price and/or breakfast.
Since I never open links in messages, and it didn’t seem to direct to anything in booking.com… I ignored it because of Booking.com’s own disclaimer: “Nothing to do with us!” No doubt I’d have had to re-enter my CC information since the upgrademyroom link didn’t have access to the original booking. I wonder if it was fraudulent. Since using Booking.com on numerous other bookings, I am suspicious because I NEVER received such a request before. Perhaps not, though. It’s hard tot find the URL: upgrademyroom.co
